内容説明

In "Moral Dilemmas of Feminism", Laurie Shrage explores the moral premises of a critically self-aware and robust feminist sexual politics. Shrage focuses on the issues of prostitution and abortion - issues which have divided feminists and our larger society - in order to develop an interpretive and pluralist approach to feminist ethics. Seeking to avoid the reductionism and ethnocentrism prevalent in much feminist and American moral philosophy, she also identifies some practical political goals that will benefit women. The book begins with an examination of philosophical debates regarding the morality of adultery. Critiquing some of the principles often wielded in these debates, Shrage offers a culturally relativistic, socially contextualised approach to ethical theorizing. She further develops this approach by applying it to the abortion controversy. Considering abortion in culturally unfamiliar and familiar contexts, Shrage attempts to identify some cultural assumptions that underlie alternative readings of abortion in our society.
